Kannestein Rock BY Wojciech Kruczynski
Our Second Place Winner was submitted by
Wojciech Kruczynski from Piastow Poland
I am an amateur landscape photographer from Poland, also known as Swen Stroop. My favorite places to take my pictures is Iceland, Scotland and Norway (especially the Hebrides and Lofoten Islands). I always spend my vacations in these locations, on feet with backpack or on my bicycle, struggling with rain, cold wind and ugly midges. I can't imagine something more beautiful and pleasant than this.

Origin by Craig Bill
Our Third Place Winner was submitted by
Craig Bill from Austin Texas
My name is Craig Bill and I am a landscape photographer residing in Austin, Texas. Photography, I feel in my life, has always seemed a relevant and appropriate tool for expression - especially for our planet. Technological advances in this industry not only allow me to appreciate and utilize past techniques, but embrace the future of photographic science... one without limitations. I do enjoy being part of the entire artistic process from travel and capture to printing and fashioning artworks. “Painting or drawing with light”, a literal definition of photography, does not seem to grasp the entire concept as it applies to this art. Rather, maybe, the endless waiting, driving, freezing, and starving might convey a better picture sometimes... all for seeking and capturing fleeting atmosphere, light and land - tiny moments in time and space. Using different tools of cameras, filters, time, light, space and patience I hope to share images that we may not easily or not at all experience directly, but are there - waiting to be discovered.

Splendor By Fausto Rosa
Our Honorable Mention Winner was also submitted by
Fausto Rosa from Blumenau, Santa Cartarina Brazil
I am a doctor and an amateur photographer that loves photography since my teenage years. About 7 years ago, I decided to take this passion a more seriously, investing in the acquisition of books, research, tutorials, beyond buying professional equipment and accessories. Although I photograph everything I find interesting, I tend to focus on landscapes of my region in trips.
